The rain falls routinely
It slows and stops
Amid a sickly yellow sky
There is an eerie calm
That bids an uneasy occasion
Coming in distant thunder
The gathering clouds adhere
In a darkened anvil cloud
The winds spiraling up
A cyclonic image connects
It seems to never touch earth
In unison with the heavens
The angry skies are alive
It moves with impunity
Slowed by its magnitude
It covers the land quickly
Spreading devastation
To all it ventures upon
Sometimes haphazardly
In a dull din cloak gathered
Such calamity everlasting
Over in but a few moments
Noise of train cars colliding
The blast succumbs to calm
Silence after the storm
